cheers, will do.

but before i go bothering them, do you need to be a member of one of the clubs?

Just spoke to Jonathon Graham (WRX guy) and he said as long as the car passes Scruit and you are a member of a CAMS affiliated club (SAUNSW) you are good to go.

You can pay by the link in the entry form, fill in the entry form and email it to Jonathons email address.

If you pay before 11 May cost is $165.

Did you have the Mines baffles in the 26 covers on?

Yes and it was 99% better, still had a small amount of slatter that got through the covers/baffles and catch can, only a couple of mills/drops though, I didnt drip down from the car to the track but it was still annoying.

To fix the problem Im going to get fabed up another catch tank which will be removeable or have a tap in it to drain it when it gets some in it, even after a full track day I think there would be no more than 10 to 20 mills in it.

The first session I just plodded around and it was fine, the second session I got up it a little bit more and that was fine, the third session I thrashed the bejesus out of it, changing gears when the shift light flashed and trying to keep it on the boil, thats when it spat a little.

Awesome fun day with a PB and big four wheel drifts, the Hankooks although only classed as a street tyre were great, no nasty moments with them at all even when doing four wheel drifts through the corners.

With a few more sessions under my belt I can smell single figures.

Ill fix up the little issue of the oil and give her some maintanance like new pads and stuff and then....

Come on Skyline Nationals.

      Rusty roof repair

      Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.

      I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent.

      Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.

      Rusty roof repair

      By PranK · Posted

      So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
